Fails WP:BASIC, has a mention in a recognised dictionary, and a few articles about the term itself. I don't find any sources of this word being widely used, in places other than those few articles. Daiyusha (talk) 18:05, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

* Retracting page has been redirected to wiktionary, no need of AfD Daiyusha (talk) 18:07, 10 November 2021 (UTC) Let's see where the discussion goes, Based on Serial's comment, I will stand with my original opinion then. Daiyusha (talk) 07:05, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-IP and/or Founder comment) It was me that redirected it. Here's the chronology: It got PRODd by User:207.229.101.47, the PROD was removed by the article creator (Sallyjaynehall), the IP hit it with {{db-invented}}, but that can't honestly stick because of the dictionary and various mentions in RS—but nor would any other CSD cat, I think with the possible exception of G11? And even then ~ —so I contested it. I added the few RS I could find, realised it was promotional, probably paid-for-in-breach-of-terms-of-use crud, and that it was the perfect example of everything we don't want. So I redirected it to Wiktionary. But to be fair, that's not perfect: per WP:NOT being policy, also per the likely-ToU violatons, I feel it should still be deleted. This is a bit of a cock-up, for which I am in no small measure responsible, and in the middle of it is an IP who's going around barking instructions at peeps like he's Jimmy bloomin' Wales! ——Serial 18:22, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Serial, the IP beat me to the PROD. Giraffer ^{(talk·contribs)} 19:45, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I can't see why this page should be deleted when you have a page for the American spelling, Mompreneur. Mumpreneur is a very widely used term in the UK and in British English. I have to stress again, this is in no way commercially driven - a group of women working in the nursery industry were interested in having the term included and I offered to help. No money is changing hands and I have no personal reasons for promoting any of the women named, other than having met some very impressive women in business over the years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sallyjaynehall (talk • contribs) 15:40, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
